Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to develop a spatial and environmental database by collecting and generating several related digital data and build up a tools for data management and analysis in combination with GIS and numerical simulation software. Based on this database, to investigate objective knowledge of relationship between urban structure and ambient microclimate in new housing area in tropical country. As a result, it became clear that usability of developed spatial database and analysis environmental for a process which contains data modeling, management and visualization through the qualitative and quantitative consideration of numerical simulation effectively, and several new fundamental findings of relationship between deference of building type, open space, and block density and ambient physical environment objectively.
